This week is the annual South By Southwest Festival and a certain someone's son will be making his US debut. Logan Plant, son of Robert, will be introducing America to his band Sons of Albion. Robert already has a history at the festival when he was the main speaker back in 2005 right before he released his new album Mighty Rearranger.
Sons of Albion does have a Myspace and you can download their new single from their website. I listened to it and to tell you the truth it's not that special. You can hear a bit of Robert in Logan's voice but I think he avoids trying to sound like his father. The name also seems to have connections to Robert's father (I believe the first son's name, Karac, was somehow related to Albion). The band plays cookie cutter alternative grunge rock and isn't anything new and exciting. I'm sure they're all talented artists but it's just not my cup of tea.
Listen on Thursday for a taste of what Sons of Albion has to offer and decide what you think about the band. As always, comment for any requests.
